Early in the first quarter, Reese caught the ball at the high post and attacked the basket, slicing a pass between two Wings defenders to find Elizabeth Williams for an easy finish. The WNBA posted the clip on their social media and reacted to the pass.
“What a dime by Angel Reese 🤯 ,” the WNBA wrote. “She attacks the rim and dumps it off to Elizabeth Williams for the finish!”
Through five games, Reese is averaging 9.2 points and 13.0 rebounds per contest, which leads the entire WNBA. Her assist and steal numbers are both up from last year as well, contributing 2.8 assists and 1.6 steals per night in 2025.

Chicago will look to outlast the Wings on Saturday evening in their final game before the Commissioner’s Cup begins in June.
Their first matchup will be on June 7 against the Indiana Fever, which means they will have a week to recover before potentially playing a healthy Caitlin Clark.
